1. Make It Multiply!

2. If Amy had 3 cats and each one had 4
legs, how could we find how many
legs all the cats had?

3. =4 legs
=4 legs +
=4 legs
=12 legs

4. Another way to figure out the answer is to multiply
Another way to figure out the answer is to multiply. Multiplication is a fast way to add equal numbers. Since all 3 cats have 4 legs, instead of adding them together, we could multiply.

5. 4 legs X
3 cats
12 legs

6. How many legs altogether would
two boys have?

7. Can you think of a multiplication
problem that shows this?

8. 2 legs
2 boys X
4 legs

9. If a crayon box holds 7 crayons,
how many crayons would 2 boxes
hold?

10. Can you think of a multiplication
problem that shows this?

11. 7 crayons
2 boxes X
14 crayons

12. If every teacher has 3 books and there are 5 teachers, how many books do they all have?

13. Can you think of a multiplication
problem that shows this?

14. 5 teachers
3 books X
15 books

15. If every desk has 1 apple and there are 9 desks, how many apples are there in all?

16. Can you think of a multiplication
problem that shows this?

17. 1 apple X
9 desks
9 apples

18. Multiplication involves sets of
objects. Can you write a multiplcation problem for these sets?
I think I can do it!

19. 5 sets of 2 each

20. 5 X 2 =10

21. 3 sets of 4 each

22. 3 X 4 = 12

23. 3 sets of 3 each

24. 3 X 3 = 9

25. 4 sets of 2 each

26. 4 X 2 = 8

27. 6 sets of 3 each

28. 3 X 6 = 18

29. 5 sets of 4 each

30. 5 X 4 = 20

31. On your paper, draw sets to represent each of the following multiplication problems. Then solve the problems. Click on the
to find the answer.

32. 2 X 9=
5 X 1=
5 X 5=
4 X 0=
8 X 1=
6 X 4=

33. 2 X 9=18
Let’s try another!

34. 5 X 5=
Let’s try another!

35. 8 X 1=
Let’s try another!

36. 5 X 1=
Let’s try another!

37. 4 X 0=
Let’s try another!

38. 6 X 4=
